If it floods which can only happen with a carburetor engine not fuel injection and if it does flood let it sit for a few minutes and it will be fine.
Yep.That is why you should go slow through a flooded road so it doesn't get in your engine. Hope this helps :)
the engine is flooded with gas
Possible internal engine damage.
An ATV's engine can get flooded if you hold the throttle open for too long. At the bottom of the carburetor, there is a screw that can be opened to drain it.
If by flooded, you mean with fuel, there are two solutions. One is to leave the engine alone for a while (an hour or so should be plenty long). The other is to hold the gas pedal on the floor (do not pump it) while starting the engine until the engine starts. Give the starter a break periodically, don't crank for more than 45 seconds continuously or damage can occur to the starter. If by flooded, you mean with water, it would depend on how long and what kind of water is involved. Repair could be as simple as flushing the engine, or as complicated as a total rebuild.
you can try getting the engine blowed out, but that may not solve it if it has sat a long period of time.
you flooded it
maybe one of the electrical outlets in the engine got electricuted which made the engine not start.
usually if you flooded your engine you just need to let is sit for awile then try starting it up again and it should turn over if that was the problem
It should be the case drain. If the engine becomes flooded with water, pull the cable (and the spark plugs) and turn over the engine. The water will be pumped out. I think.
too much fuel is being pushed into the cylinder from the carb
well you shouldn't be inside your basement if it was flooded so don't complain what shoes.
